Abstract
This reseach develop the wheelchair having the automatic a step climbing function. Therefore this article analyzes the physical movement of the wheelchair user and inspects the movement of human body suitable for wheelie motion. From the analysis result, we suggest slide mechanism.We think that the slide mechanism has effect of the movement of the center of gravity and the action-reaction forces. We rig up the slide mechanism to the experimental machine of the 1/2 wheelchair model, and we perform the experiment of a step climbing by rear wheel and inspect the effect of the slide. From the above-mentioned result, this is to certify that to be of benefit slide mechanism.
